Welcome to the Merida English Therapists website. Here you will find a quick-reference directory of English-speaking therapists in Mérida and beyond.
I created this directory purely as a free resource to support our local expat community. It is entirely non-commercial, with no promotional agendas, sponsored listings, or financial interests. My only goal in developing this resource is to help fellow residents easily find English-speaking mental health support in the area, and also to help foster local engagement with local professionals who are highly trained and capable therapists.
If you know of an English-speaking therapist that would like to be included in this directory, please have them send me an email to: agalanmx@gmail.com
Therapists are listed in alphabetical order by last name.
